Exhibit 99.1
Actinium Pharmaceuticals Announces Actimab-A
Intellectual Property and Manufacturing Advances and Provides NYSE American Listing Update
NEW YORK, August 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ –
Actinium Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NYSE American: ATNM) (Actinium or the Company), a pioneer in the development of targeted radiotherapies,
today announced advances across its Actimab-A program, including recently acquired patents adding to a broad suite of IP, and expansion
of the Company’s manufacturing capacity, as the program approaches clinical milestones from the fourth quarter of 2026 and into
2027. The Company also provided an update on the status of its NYSE American listing.
Actiniums holds a broad IP portfolio covering
the manufacture of Actimab-A, as well as its use alone and in combination with other therapies in the treatment of myeloid hematological
malignancies including acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), in addition to solid tumor cancers via targeting
of tumor-resident myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs). Actimab-A patent portfolio activity in the last twelve months:
Actimab-A targeting of myeloid-derived suppressor
cells (MDSCs) for the treatment of solid tumors: Two United States patents issued — US 12,491,274 for the treatment of sarcoma,
expiring 15 October 2043, and US 12,539,340 for the treatment of solid tumors generally, alone or with checkpoint therapy, expiring 31
October 2043. Together they extend the anti-CD33 franchise beyond hematologic malignancy into solid tumors by targeting the immunosuppressive
myeloid cells of the tumor microenvironment rather than the tumor cells themselves. Applications remain pending in the United States,
Canada and Europe.
Actimab-A treatment of low peripheral blast
AML: US 12,410,249 issued, with a term to 12 October 2039, and Canadian application 3,022,802 entered pre-grant status, with a term
to 25 May 2037. Additional patents in this family have already issued in the United States and Japan; applications remain pending in the
United States and Europe.
Actimab-A venetoclax (BCL-2 inhibitor) combination
therapy for the treatment of AML: Canadian application 3,059,752 entered pre-grant status, with a term to 26 April 2038, covering
the use of Actimab-A together with venetoclax in AML. Three patents have already issued in the United States and one in Mexico; applications
remain pending in the United States, Europe, Japan and China.
Actimab-A CLAG-M combination therapy for the
treatment of AML: Canadian application 3,087,346 was allowed, with a term to 8 January 2039. A counterpart patent has already issued
in Japan; applications remain pending in the United States, Europe and Japan.
Actinium has amended its Investigational New Drug
(IND) application to add an additional manufacturer. The additional manufacturer will supply studies conducted under the Company’s
Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA) with the National Cancer Institute (NCI), together with additional Company-sponsored
studies, which carry clinical milestones expected from the second half of 2026 and throughout 2027. Establishing an additional manufacturing
source is intended to expand capacity and supply flexibility as Actimab-A advances into a broader set of studies across hematologic malignancies
and solid tumors.
NYSE American Listing Update
Actinium also announced today that NYSE Regulation
has accepted the Company’s plan submitted June 18, 2026, to regain compliance with the NYSE American continued listing standards
and granted the Company a plan period through November 27, 2027 (the “Plan Period”) - the maximum period available under Section
1009 of the NYSE American Company Guide (the “Company Guide”).
The Company’s common stock continues to
be listed and traded on NYSE American under the symbol ATNM during the Plan Period, subject to the Company’s compliance with the
terms of the compliance plan and the other continued listing standards of the NYSE American Company Guide. NYSE Regulation staff will
periodically review the Company’s compliance with the initiatives outlined in the compliance plan.
As previously disclosed, the Company is not currently
in compliance with Sections 1003(a)(ii) and 1003(a)(iii) of the NYSE American Company Guide, and its listing is being continued pursuant
to an extension through November 27, 2027.
About Actinium Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
Actinium is a pioneer in targeted radiotherapies
designed to improve outcomes for patients with cancer. The company employs a biology-driven approach to develop differentiated radiopharmaceuticals
for solid tumors and hematologic malignancies. Its mission is to transform cancer treatment through innovative radioconjugates that maximize
therapeutic efficacy while minimizing toxicity to healthy tissue by combining expertise in tumor biology, translational medicine, and
radiochemistry. Since inception, Actinium has focused on developing innovative radiotherapies. Its pipeline reflects this strategy across
three areas: (1) solid tumor therapeutics including ATNM-400 and Actimab-A with pan-tumor potential; (2) Actimab-A as a therapeutic backbone
for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) in collaboration with the National Cancer Institute (NCI); and (3)
targeted conditioning agents including Iomab-B for bone marrow transplant and Iomab-ACT for cell and gene therapy conditioning. ATNM-400
targets a novel antigen distinct from PSMA and has demonstrated preclinical activity across metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer
(mCRPC), non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and breast cancer. Actimab-A has shown improved survival in relapsed/refractory AML with
CLAG-M and is advancing toward a Phase 2/3 trial, with additional development ongoing through a CRADA with the NCI. Actinium is also advancing
preclinical solid tumor programs and holds ~250 patents and patent applications, including intellectual property related to cyclotron-based
production of Ac-225. For more information, please visit www.actiniumpharma.com.
